Zenos never had a fair shot at life. Born into the slums, every door seemed closed before he even knew how to knock. But a chance meeting with a mysterious healer sets him on a new path—one paved with determination and sleepless nights of self-study. When a group of adventurers offers him a spot on their team, Zenos thinks his luck has finally turned. That is, until they reveal their true colors—using him for his healing magic, then discarding him when they no longer see him as useful.
Broke, betrayed, and left with nothing but his knowledge, Zenos opens a hidden clinic in the city's dark corners. There, he begins performing miraculous feats of healing, drawing attention from the desperate, the dangerous—and even the royal court. As whispers of a genius healer working in the shadows grow louder, Zenos faces new threats and new hope. Can he rise from the ashes of rejection to become a legend in his own right? And can he heal not just the bodies, but the lives, of those who come seeking salvation?
